Vegetable in My Garden

When my veggies are just starting to come up, our bunny decided to mowed it down so I put him back inside his house for a while and give the veggies time to grow. I replanted some seed again and they are now coming up well. Last year, I did not have much carrots as the birds plucked them when they were just coming up but this year, it looks awesome.

The owner of the kennel where we board our dog when we are traveling gave me some collard greens and lettuce.

Left photo are radishes, I planted some for our bunny because he loves radish. We are not much of a radish fan but our bunny is. Photo on the right is the tomato, they are getting taller.

On the left photos is the taro plant. I bought some taro roots last year and grew them in a pot, I put it inside our home last Winter so it won't die. They did get very small due to lack of sunlight though. The cayenne pepper was given to me by a friend last year. I also put it inside the house last Winter.

I don't eat okra too much even when I was still in my country but I kind of miss it so I am growing some this year. I also would like to introduce it to my kids. I am not sure if they will like it as it is slimy hehehe.

I grew this grapes from the seeds that we ate sometime last year. It came back this year and it is now taking over my rose bush.

I saved some pumpkin seeds from last year and tried to plant some this year. Only two seedlings (photo on left)are left as our squirrel in the backyard dug them all up. The photo on the right are cucumbers. Our neighbor gave us some seedlings last week.

I have some herb in my garden too. These were given also by our neighbors sometime last year. I have mint and dill. My parsley did not come back this year.

So there you go, the veggies in my garden. My beans are just coming up so I did not take photos of them.
